The proof that Shellenberger's
Pills are true Antidote for Mala-
ria is found in the fact that a cure
is immediate. Quinine and other
remedies bring temporary relief
after some time--often many days.
One dose of the antidote brings i'm
mediate relief; chills are stopped,
all unpleasant symptoms disappear,
and after a few more doses perfect
health and strength are secured.
The entertainment given by
the 1st Bible Class of the LIST

Richmond, Va, April 18th, '87.
Easter Sunday was as lovely
and bright as it could be; all OF
our churches were thronged at
each service. Monday was gen
orally observed as a holiday from
early morn until late at night;
our streets were crowded with
pleasure seekers and along the
banks of the James River hum
dreds and almost thousands of
people could be seen fishing.
Only one accident was reported;
two ladies while fishing fell in the
river hut fortunately they were
rescued
The Bergen Star company filled
their engagements at our differ.

cess, everybody that attended
expressed themselves as highly
pleased.
Rev r. Wells, the pastor of the
Ebenezer Baptist church, has
been very sick but was able to be
out last Sunday.
The county of H"nrico has
nominated her officers and as
usual, all of the positions of any
worth have been given to white
men. This is county in which
the majority of voters are colored,
yet the white men must have all
of the Offices of worth. For the
position of Commissioner of rev.
enue, our distinguished gentle
man Mr.. Edward Thompson,
was candidate. Not only is
Mr.. Thompson gentleman, but
a true and tried Republican, new
ertheless it was given again to
the man who employs several
clerks under him, all of whom we
have been informed are demo
Gratis. This we claim is an out,
rage on a civilized community
Yet it seems that the colored
voters of this county have shut
their eyes against the painful
truth. We pray God that this
state of affairs will soon change
and they as men regardless O
their color or previous condition
may occupy the positions that art
now occupied by the white men.
Yours respectfully,

Company was more than a success.
On Monday evening the church
was so crowded that hundreds had
to be turned away. The partici-
pants did we'll and Prof Bergen is
a man who knows how to make a
thing a success. Miss Adelaide G..
Smith, of Boston, Mass, hes a cul-
tured voice and can be justly
styled the queen of vocal art.
Mr.. w. l. Powell, baritone, took
the house by storm and those who
failed to hear him missed a treat.
Miss Flora BatsOn, of Providence,
has a voice sweeter than the songs
of the sirene. She is a lady very
small in statute, but, a queen in
appearance. Mime V. Adele Mont
gomery, of New York, the accom-
panist has no equal in the insEu-
mental art. She is perfect gem in
her make up and artistic in her ex-
ecutions. Fifty cents is no price
for such concerts. Prizes were
awarded after the concert on Mon
